Summer is Coming!

With Summer just around the bend, it's about time I stop eating like a cow and try a little harder. Shed my "winter coat" if you will. Now, I have a tendency of making goals in personal fitness and diet... and failing miserably. SO! I figured that if I put it in my blog, I'd have something in writing to refer to. And, for those 3 of you who might stumble upon this, you can hold me to it, eh? ;)

Starting full swing as of March 1st, I am cutting out the following completely:

-Ice Cream

-Cake

-Cookies

-Candy

-Brownies

-Soda

-Fast Food 

-And any other unnecessary fatty food

However, I'm doing this with one exception. As to not go stir crazy the next few weeks, I'm allowing myself ONE guilty pleasure a week. And my guilty pleasure of choice is a nice, cold Throwback Mountain Dew.... mmmm :) Just one a week. At most, even. Only if I'm having a hard one and really need it.

In addition to my food cut, I'm going to hold myself to going to the Gym at LEAST 3 times a week, and to take Tip on a nice long walk on the other days.

How long am I doing this, do you ask? Well forever would be the ideal answer. However, I can't make a promise I can't keep so we're going to start out small. I will be doing this challenge until, drum roll please......

APRIL 19, 2013

Aka, my birthday :) So watch out on that day. I will definitely be needing a big, chocolaty birthday cake. I can't believe I'm so close to not being a teenager anymore... Hallelujah to turning 20!

So, readers, hold me to this! I'm ending my winter binge! Hopefully, though, this time of "fasting" will create some good summer habits for me to hold onto. My goal is to go shopping and go a little crazy for some hot summer clothes. Can I do it?! Sure. Why not.

Now, if we could please take a moment of silence in tribute to the following:

Thank you. 

Here goes nothing!
